Masky woke slowly at first, then jumped up in a panic. He scrambled backwards until his back hit something solid. He looked around, not recognizing the place he was in. Around him cage bars surrounded him along with the few others with him. His sudden activity had gotten the attention of the others in the cage.

"Masky!" Hoodie exclaimed as he rushed towards the other proxy. It only took a couple of steps as the cage isn't that large. He knelt in front of the other and wrapped his arms around his broad shoulders, gently resting his forehead against his boyfriends. A sigh of relief swept past his lips. "I'm so glad you woke up. You've been out for over twelve hours."

Masky brought his hand up to the back of Hoodie's head in a silent apology for the worry he had unknowingly caused. He didn't know, but from the second he was thrown against the wall and knocked out, Hoodie had been scared he wouldn't wake up. EJ had done his best, but without medical supplies there was only so much he could do for Masky's bleeding shoulder and concussion. The white masked man was out cold for far longer than EJ would have liked. Secretly he feared that Masky wouldn't wake up.

"Where are we? What happened?" Masky asked after a few moments of silence.

Hoodie pulled back To give Masky room to look around. Next to this cage on either side were two more. Pastas of his House filled them, including the animals and children. Laughing Jack's arms were stung up to prevent access to his smoke bombs, something only he had access to. Grinny, Smile, and Seed were each muzzled and had their heads tied up close to the cage walls. There are clear attempts at the removal of the muzzles, but everyone is disarmed or powerless, preventing any effective attempts at removal or escape.

"Zalgo took over the mansion and captured everyone, including the Slender Brothers." Hoodie explained as he sat back, tired from a long night. "I don't know how they did it, but they did. While they were unconscious they stormed the mansion and took everyone prisoner before burning the place down."

"Where is Slenderman and his brothers?" Masky asked, looking around again. He quickly noticed someone else was missing too. "And where's Toby? Did they get him too?"

"Slenderman and his brothers are in that metal box over the throne." Hoodie said as he pointed just over Masky's left shoulder. Suspended in the air like they were was a large metal box that looked too small for the Slender Brothers to stand in individually, much less all four be shoved in. Hoodie sighed again before continuing. "As for Toby, he wasn't there during the attack. They know he's missing, but they're not concerned. He can't do anything on his own. If he even tries he'll be captured."

"Fuck." Masky grumbled as he leaned back against the bars of the cage. He sat in silence for a minute, trying to think things through. "Why haven't they killed us yet? Why keep us in these cages?"

"We're not entirely sure." EJ said, piping up for the first time. He was sitting down at the other end of the cage, arms tucked in his hoodie's pocket. "I heard something about a ceremony of some sort. A sacrifice I think. Just my luck to be put through two in one lifetime." He spat in anger, 'glaring' out the bars of the cage.

Masky and Hoodie jerked in surprise when they heard the sounds of Jeff screaming in rage as he started kicking at the bars of the cage. He repeatedly slammed the bottom of his boot against one of the bars in a vain attempt at dislodging it. He would keep it up until he lost his balance, then target a new one. However he did nothing but attract the attention of Zalgo's pastas. They sneered and snickered at him, infuriating the killer more.

"Jeff, calm down!" Ben shouted above the noise to his temperamental boyfriend. "This isn't doing anyone any good."

"I. AM. TRYING. TO. ESCAPE!" Jeff said between each kick to the bars, temper never cooling.
